Contracts have found more activNand fever
ish market with numerous pretty sharp fluctu-
ationS After some hesitation at the opening
prices took an upward turn aud gained an lrreg-
ular advance of COS points over last evening, or
some 9@l1 points from the morning figure. A
liberal demand from unexpected quarters alb
Sorblng the supply freely and creating more or
less alarm among shorts with some additional
stimulus obtained through reports of rain over
a portion of the cotton belt. Subsequently
desire to realize led to reaction of 4Gp5 points,
but the offerings were not free, and at the close
there was stifening again and the feeling pretty
steady. Liverpool was tame and port receipts
continued in full volume"

CHICAGO, Sept 21.-It was quite generally eX-
pected that local Liquidation would bring about
decline in the grain markets to-day; out the
crowd was wrong. Cables were again very en-
Were firm and in fair demand at Liverpool and
prices were good. Exporters also reported good
inquiries. Tho decrease io the visible supply
announced yesterday not only helped prices up
but the mere fact OF a large decrease in visible
wheat at this season Of the year was considered
less operators felt like selling against it, Wheat
did not reach before noon as bigh point
yesterday, but sold between 71011%c for Octo-
Der and between 79G793sc for May. Corn
showed more fir1nnesS with less cause. ard the
October article sold at 4134Qt42c and May up to
451Sc Interest in wheat was well maintained
and at times active. Prices were: October 1111c
up to 7l15c. then down t. lie up again 70 7l$sc
and back to he, from which point there was
rally at 1870 which carried this future to II 15c
the second time for the day December sold at
1915 To open. then up TO 7414c, back down to
1870 and reacted later to 1414c. May sold at 10
61i9]sc. The best prices OF the day were about
fifteen minutes before p. NJ, when October
sold up to 7I3s@flAc, December to 7414c and
May 195tc, tlual prices for the day were about
the same, except for May, which showed fall
ing off of 14c. Corn was moderately active and
firm to-day. Receipts were not as large
ticipated. and this together with the urgent de
mand for cash corn, tended 80 crea6e n firm
feeling. There was good local demand and bet
ter inquiry from other sources some foreign
orders, both for cash and future delivery, being
on the market Cables were firmer and home
markets steady. October opened at 4f34c
ranged at 4l}4@gI215c and closed at 413sc May
opened at i4iSc, ranged at 4iS4da4513c and
closed at 451Ac. Oats we're stronger in sympa-
thy with che improved tone of other markets,
and the firmnegj prevailing resulted in the final
improvement of H0tlc for near futures, but
May did not change materially Provisions were
rather quiet and the range In prices were slight.
In VIEW of liberal receipts Of hogs, with a further
increase estimated for to-morrOw.the undertone
to the market favored buyers. Offerings were
moderately free, while the demand was only
fair, with October and January deliveries at
tracing most attention. Inquiry for shipment
was a comparatively light one and limited TO
small orders. Offerings were moderate and
prices ruled easy. Receipts of products Were
light while shipments were quite liberal and
widely distlibutedl European Gdyices were I'M
changed, while Eastern markets were easier.
October lard opened at So 42t5, ranged at 80 40
6lG 42Ib and closed at SO l2Js. Short rib sides
were somewhat unsettled and weak, and a
further sharp decline was submitted TO for Octo-
Der delivery. while January was only a trle
lower October opened at 81 81, sagIsed 10 S. 20
